The Manicure
Lady
"1 seen a thins when I was doing tome
hopping thh noon." said the Manicure
I.ody, "that reminded mo of my child
hood days back In the old village. There
was a old fellow with chin whiskers on
that came Into the swell department store
where I was shopping-, and after he had
bought a pair of gloves he asked the
clerk If that was the very best she could
do on the rrlce. Of course, the itlrl be
hnnd the counter looked at him and
laughed and eald that sho couldn't cut
no prices so: the old fellow threw the
gloves back and told her' to keep them,
lie said he was going somewhere with his
trade where people would appreciate him
and the money he spent."
"I suppose that broke the girl's heart,"
said the Head Barber.
"8he didn't care none, of course," said
the Manicure lady, "but It kind of set me
thinking that there It a lot of people In
this world tike that old guy with .he
fringe on his lower Jaw. He was In
there to spend a Iollar and get 10 cents
over a dollar In value. And even then
he thought that the store people ought
to look for him with outstretched arms
nnd treat him llko a prince.
'T remember when we lived In a small
town. George. We had that kind of stuff
handed to us on every side. The old gent
used to keep a hotel when I was a mere
child one of them country hotels whjre
there Is accommodation for man and
beast, nnd you could tako your pick
which kind of accommodations you
wanted. I remember one time an old
fnrmer walked up to father and said:
'Ed, I always stop here for my dinner
every time I come to town, five or six
times every year. And I always pay my
25 cents for dinner without no squeal.
Don't you think you ought tb'throw In n
good cigar with the dinner once In n
while?' I remember how the old gent
told him to get out of the place and ko
somewhere elre for his two-bit dinners
In the future."
"He must have been pretty cheap, that
farmer," observed the Head Barber.
"The cheap folks ain't all In the coun
try. George." said the Manicure Larly.
"Thcro Is a lot of them in the city that
would llko to beat down tho clerks In
the big stores If they thought that thoy
cculd get away with It. but they know
there ain't a chance In the world, bo they
let their meanness crop out other ways.
They think cheap thoughts even If they
haven't got th enerve to express them.
One girl friend Of mine that wouldn't
think of asking for a lower price on a
shirtwaist would ride down town morning
after morning with me on the Subway,
and I noticed after T had dug three or
four mornings In a row for the carfare
that she would make an awful stall In
her pocketbook for 10 cents and pulling
that 'Oh, let me pay' stuff. Take It from
me, George, after the third morning T let
her look until sho had dug up that hard,
thin dime, and after that she didn't snug
gle up to me no more. I suppose she was
looking for another victim
"That's the system they play in the
big toWjU, .George. They. pat.yo.u ori-the
back until, you blush as long as you can
help them, but thq minuto you start
looking out of the window and not "re
sponding to their hollers for help they
beat It for frefh fields and pastures new.
How many friends have you got here In
the effy. George, that would stick to you
If you were going through bankruptcy?"
"T guess tho only friends I woujd have
then would be my wife," said tho Head
Harber. "and the lawyer that was putting
me through."
Advice to the Lovelorn
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
Certainly.
Dear Miss Kali fax. I am IS and have
been keeping company with a young man
six years my senior for the last seven
months. For the last two months we
haven't met on account of a quarrel. I
would like to ask If It Is proper for me
to write to him first, as It was niy fault
that we quarreled, J. I. II.
It would show a very generous spirit,
and I hope he will be man enough to
appreciate it. Don't be too humble and
don't apologte a second time.
Don't Try.
Dear Miss Fairfax: I am 18 and deeply
In love with a man of 27. Ho does not
seem to care for me. How can 1 win
his love? . 0; C.
You are only 18, so that the winning
of any man's love is not urgently Im
portant. Try to think less of htm; ac
quire other Interests; be your own natural
self, and If he Is the man Intended for
you he will give his love all tho more
ardently If ft Is unsought.
It Certainly Ik.
Dear Miss Fairfax: Is It Improper for
a girl at the ago of 15 to speak to any
men?
It Is Improper for a girl to apeak to
"any man," by whom I tbink you mean
n man to whom she has not been intro
duced, no matter what her age.

Terrible Minutes
That One When You Ask Dad for Betty
By Nell Brinkley
Copyright, 1911, International News Service.

Nell Brinkley Says:
That's a terrible ralnuto, sure!
I wished, when I was little, that I was a. boy. Boys could stay
out on the prnirio later; they could turn a better flip-flop on tho min
ister's fence; they never had to sing "Shine On, Little Sta-a-ah-a-ahr!"
at the church Christmas doings and have the organ cease and leavo
them to go alone. They never had to wash their necks as often, and
they could settle things up in a good, soul-satisfying manner when j
they and the chuckle-headed boy across the aisle didn't agree! Ii
wished that then Just as hard as a ltf-tle towhead Who lOved a do:
and the whole outdoors and boy conversation and boy books could!
But I haven't for a long time. And I don't over when I re mem
ber that I'd havo to lXok some grim-faced man who called the Betty
whom I loved his "baby" in tho eye and proposo to him! Proposo
to him that I swipo her away! So it's good to bo n glr! oh, Just for
that reason alono; kissing your fingers to all the other things that go
to make "being a girl" delectable.
For Launcelot Du Lake nover puffed out his chest ns wido or took
as big a breath when ho swung his whistling sword for marvelous ad
venturo as a chap does when ho buttons up his coat swallows his sick
heart grips tho hand of tho little cowardy-custard behind him and
asks her father for her. Asking for your first "Job" Is a torrlblo
episode. But this Is a stunner besldo it. For you know ho doesn't
love you no matter what a safe, comfortable, hustling, clean, square
chap you arc becauso your'o a thief. Ho might as well bo blind he
doesn't seo your smooth, clean look and straight-gazing eyes you look
Just llko a porch-climber to him! Anyway, you're afraid you do. And
tho speech tho epeech! Where Is It? Last night, in tho dark peace
of your bed, you said It oft and it was a great talk I It was short
beautifully short and It was full of sense and persuasion it put your
case and Betty's truthfully and perfectly1 and It reminded him that
he had onco been in your shoes and had less than you reminded him
that "up to now" he had liked yorj hold all the arguments that Love
has preached to the world since tho tiny beginning of things. 'It was
beautiful. It was honest nnd serious and short! And whore is it
now? All you can think of 1b, "Sho loves me (say yes), and I love
her and I can make her happy!" They all say that!
You almost wish you'd fallen in lovo withVn orphan!
Cultivating a Smile
Helpful Beauty Hints from Norma Phillips,
"The Mutual Girl"

"I had to think cheerfully."
"1 cultivated n smile."

"Of course, I would bp untrue to my
profession if I said thrre was such an

Norma Phl.llps, who Is the. Mutual g!rl
in the new Mutual moving pictures by
that name. "And the funny part of It Is
that I have had to make over my own
face, and so I can speak from experience
when I say that true beauty is facial ex

face. That Is, my features are Inclined
to droop and my eyes to look wistful.

whether you are happy or not, but It
brought such wonderful results after I

a method that It was really fun.
"I had to think cheerful thoughts out
loud whenever )t was necessary to l.iok
happy,' so I cultivated a smile. Some
times I smiled outatde when I was mis
erable within, but after a while It was
easier and I found that with very little
(extra trouble I could think hatfoy
thoughts all the while.

Jupiter's Moons
By REV. THOMAS B. GREGORY.
It was 391 years ago, January 7, 161V,
that the great Galileo discovered the sat
ellites of Jupiter.
The true nature of the quartette or
faint stars was In
stantly perceived,
Thero could bo no
doubt that they
were small bodies
subordinate to Ju
piter, attending
upon him, and re
volving about him,
and bearing tho
Identical relation
ship to him that
the moon bears to
the earth.
Claitleo's vision of
Jupiter's moons wan the u.ucues
flrtt substant'al gift to man, Its initial
overture to the Innate yearlng of the
human mind toward a knowledge of the
mysteries of Infinite space. And a won
derful overture It wos, full of profound,
est significance, and destined to shake
up all the thought-systems of all the
schools.
that he had been permitted to gate upon
objects which, up to that time, the eys
of man hud never beheld, Galileo con
tinued to search the heavens with his
strange now Instrument, and the follow
ing year the telescope' showed him the
phases of Venus.
Seventy-five years before, Copernlcut
had launched his famous Heliocentric
theory, that tho earth and other planets
are the members of a system of which
the sun Is the center, and his Ignorant
and Infuriated opponents said to htm
mockingly: "If your doctrine were true,
Venus would show phases like the moon,"
to which Copernicus meekly replied; "You
are right. I know not what to say to
you; but God Is good, and In time He will
find on answer to your objection." The
God-given answer came when the rude
telescope of Galileo showed the phases
of Venus.
The Copcrnlcan theory was no longer
a theory, but a demonstrated fact, Coper
nicus had been dead sixty-eight years,
and his memory was under the ban of
the Infallibilities, but along came Galileo
with the facts about Jupiter and Venua
which would not down, and round to
those facts all the world was to come at
last.
